Questions Between "Show Total" and "Guest Sales"

[SummerG]

I'm having either a blonde moment or lost brain due to pregnancy... I have a question that I can't seem to answer for myself.

I'm getting ready to turn in a Show order and these are the totals:
Guest Sales: $872.75
Commissionable Sales: $836.75
Show Total: $1001.73

I haven't added on the hostess's selection of free products, 60%, etc yet. So why is the difference between the guest sales amount and the show total amount so high? I just can't figure it out right now. Is it tax and shipping? Do I have a "$1000" Show?

Thanks!

The difference between the guest sales amount and the show total amount is likely due to tax and shipping costs. Depending on the company, these charges could be added on top of the subtotal of the guest sales, which would explain the difference between the two amounts. It's also possible that you have other costs associated with the order such as a processing fee or other additional fees. You can check with the company you're ordering from to see what fees and taxes are included in the total amount.

Hi there! It looks like you might have forgotten to add in tax and shipping costs to your Show total. That could be the reason for the discrepancy between the guest sales and show total amounts. It's always a good idea to double check all of your numbers before submitting an order to make sure everything is accurate. Good luck with your Show!
